Hey dsi1, did I hit a nerve when I said you're a psychologically
damaged man with an inferiority complex? I thought you'd be relieved.
It's your coming out, man! Embrace the truth!

I understand the purpose of emojis, I'm just not a fan no matter how "Idiosyncratic"
their "applications" might be. If people want to use emojis to express themselves
that's fine with me. I'm not going to war over it. But I don't typically pay attention
to them. I also tend, most of the time, to give short shrift to quotes from famous
people used at the end of posts to somehow verify their importance. I clicked on
a few keys as someone suggested the other day to see a list of emojis suddenly
appear on the screen. I was not expecting it to work. Anyway, to me they all sort
of looked alike no matter what they were designed to represent, as one guy
invented them all and will one day be as popular and renowned as Van Gogh or
Picasso to the point where experts are called in to verify the emoji work as legit.
Just like with jewels or paper money, delicate eye magnifiers will be used by
professional emoji experts hired to verify their source. "Is it a phony or do
you think the 'real guy' did this one?"

Man, what a waste of words you just now directed at dsi1 when a single
emoji could have covered it all. But it has to be a top notch emoji created
by a top notch emoji master. They exist but they cost a bunch. In the
meantimes you'll have to be satisfied with common emojis used by other
people. The day will come when emojis are more than enough to properly
express our thoughts. Words are flawed, we all know that. They are on
their way out. Eventually even emojis will disappear as we evolve to the
point where we are able to communicate telepathically before evolving
further into a state where communication is not needed at all and is
considered an intrusion on our serene solitude.

Absolutely not. You're not clever or insightful enough to see what I'm thinking. People of Hawaii aren't like the native people of your land that you look down upon - those people you treat like dogs and slaves. We are a proud but humble people. Mostly, I'm aggravated at people that ask a never ending series of stupid questions merely to initiate and sustain engagement. That's a waste of my valuable time. I won't let people steal my time.

What we're witnessing (and you're ignoring) is the evolution of language into a phase made possible by the cell phone. My guess is that in the future, people will communicate with each other in pigeon using words from different countries and emojis - or I could be completely wrong.

Your racism is so deeply ingrained in you that you're completely blind to it. You just think it's people having a little fun.

The Food That Built America on History channel featured peanut butter
this episode.
 
It was originally made by Kellogg as a protein for people that could not
eat meat for some reason. Peanuts were boiled many hours, then mashed.
Oil would separate and eventually the stuff went bad.
 
The first commercial PB was made by Heinz. Still not good quality but
someone had a good idea. After some experimenting, Peter Pan was made
and a success.
 
The guy that made the PP brand broke off and made Skippy. His big
selling point was chunky style and it became the biggest seller.
 
Procter and Gamble got into the business and made Jif, now the biggest
seller. They were the first to use vegetable oil and added more sweeteners.
 
The government says to be peanut butter it has to be 90% peanuts.

I like to wash my rice 5 or more times. That's common practice for people like me. Keeping the bag in the freezer works. I have also heard of putting a few dried chilies in the rice. Take it out before you cook the rice.

A great example of the kind of stuff I'm least uninterested in. This crap
is unavoidable in today's society. I take that back, it can be avoided. I
avoid it all the time. But most people are really into the trending news.
In a world of 8 billion people I'll guarantee you some of the stories
we're not hearing about are more interesting or entertaining than the
ones we're getting all the time. Whatever is trending in "da news",
everyone is suddenly an expert on it. The vast majority couldn't point
out Ukraine on a map, but now suddenly they know everything about
it because it's in the news.
 
I agree, we need to move on the Ukraine issue as soon as possible.
But in the meantime - first things first - we need to find out "Who Killed
JFK?" Then and only then can we begin to discuss Ukraine and other
important issues of the day.

I understand. But even then, even if they are not censored, even if
their reports are true, they are true only to them. They are suffering
at the moment but we don't know for sure how much their own
leaders have to do with that. Not just with Ukraine, with anything.
For example a soldier in Viet Nam. All he knows is the little plot of
land he was put on, he has no more idea why he's there than anyone
else. Another funny one is two guys arguing over Vietnam (example),
and it's getting nowhere. One guy is for it, the other against. It's not
only not getting anywhere, things are getting hot - and loud. Suddenly
to point an end to the discussion one of the guys jumps up and yells,
"Hey man, my brother DIED in Vietnam", as if that makes him an
expert on the subject. But yes, getting real deal reports from people
vs news reports, that is good. I am saying that even real reports
of tragedy and so forth don't tell the real story of why it's happening.

I do that about 1.21 times a day, on average.

Eh?
 
I just had 1" thick ham steak and potatoes (with the PERFECT green
beans). The beans and potatoes have been marinating in ham jus
all week and the ham is barely cooked and tender (sous vide 6
hours @142F).

Oh yeah, that makes total sense now: "Let's use a dull knife and
an upside-down vertical stabby fork whole hand fist grip(tm) to
eat with our hands and post it publicly",.

"jaded on normal food"? Uh, OK? Or something...
 
You're just jealous because you were denied membership at Club
Roquefort because of the way you hold your knife and fork.

I'd rather have graded Choice for twice that price than sub-Select
steaks.

My error on the spelling and use of whose.
 
But if he'll hold his knife and fork like this he'll find cutting any meat
much easier. He'll also have better control of his knife and fork.

I'm taking up Four Loko again. I certainly didn't expect it to be
any different. The Sour Watermelonm still tastes liked shit, but
it has 2% more alcohol now. The 14% Grape is still fine (just
cracked one). But the Loko U.S.A with the desecrated flag
probably won't be back until June.

What, if any, spices did you add to your 'sausage'?

These days "comfort height" toilets are much more common.

There's no special benefit in fresh over dried this time. You can dry
them flat on a plate in a cool dark area.
